Abstract
We report on simulation results that shows optimum photon absorption by superconducting
nanowires can happen at a fill-factor that is much less than 100%. We also present
experimental results on high performance of our superconducting nanowire single photon
detectors realized using NbTiN on oxidized silicon.
